OK,,, not that I really need to for the wheeling that I currently do BUT looking at my setup in my signiture just how much converting would I have to do to go to a long arm setup? Worthwhile in the long run?

 

No comments??

 

Long arms would require cutting off the stock control arm frame brackets, a new trans cross member, and 8 control arms just for starters. Search for install instructions for the many long arm kits on the market to get an idea of what's involved. I have a 4" Full-traction kit on my '09 Rubicon 4 door and love it.

 

Like tinglima said, You need to cut your factory mounts off

On the two door its a big difference in ride quality from short to long arm.

We offer the long arm upgrade that consists of frame brackets, all 8 control arms, cross member and skid plate. You need to use your coils, shocks, trackbars.



The kit retails for 1895.99 (Bolt on long arm)

I'm saving up to convert to a long arm. I also run the old man emu setup.

 

Ok,, thanks to everyone that replied. Cutting off mounts ect. Thats what I was wondering,, just how (do it yourself) friendly a conversion it would be. Sounds like something I would have a shop do.
Next step will be to check labor costs.
Thanks again.

 

I installed mine with a cut off wheel and grinder before I worked at Full-Traction. It's not hard just time consuming

Generally labor is around 1,200
